Number 1: They mainly use past tense when speaking.
Something really interesting that’s been observed in people with psychopathic tendencies is how often they use the past tense.

But we still need more research to fully understand why this is happening and how exactly it works. Even so, this is a really interesting area of study that gives us some valuable insights into how the brains of people with psychopathic tendencies are different.
